ocean of sound by david toop, essential reading imho. Not necessarily about the history of dance, its more about electronic music in general. Good book though, get it..

A few people have been raving about "Love Saved The Day" (right title?). I haven't read it, but it's supposed to be ace - more on a disco tip though. Dan Sicko's "Techno Rebels" is supposed to be very good, but again I haven't read it (much to my embarrassment).
